Jason then catches up with Marko and Nigel from Solaris who give us an exclusive announcement of their new partnership; followed by Jaidev Janardana, the CEO of Zopa who discusses Zopa’s expansion from P2P lending to marketplace lending, and the company’s overall evolution since its launch in 2005.
